materials, such as spray cans, fi re extinguisher refi ll
cartridges etc.. in the fridge freezer or the vicinity of the
fridge freezer or any other appliance.
• Frozen food should not be refrozen once it has thawed out.
• The small quantity of refrigerant used in this appliance is

• When the fridge freezer is to be scrapped, cut off the
electrical supply cable and destroy the plug with the
remaining cable. Disable the door catch in order to prevent
children from becoming trapped inside while playing.
A cut off plug inserted into a 13 amp socket is a serious
safety (shock) hazard. Please ensure the cut off plug is
disposed of safely.

compartment.
• Do not remove items from the freezer if your hands are
damp/wet, as this could cause skin abrasions or frost/freezer
burns.
• Because of the very low temperatures in the freezer some
foods e.g. ice lollies could cause frost burns if consumed
immediately.
• Bottles and cans must not be placed in the freezer
compartment as they can burst as the contents freeze.
• Store pre-packed frozen foods in accordance with the
frozen foods instructions and use by date.
• Do not store medicine, academic research samples which
require strict temperature control in the fridge freezer.
• When cleaning, removing spillages (liquids or frozen food)
or removing the ice tray do not use any implements that
are hard, sharp or pointed as they may cause damage to the
appliance.
• Keep ventilation openings in the appliance enclosure or in
the built-in structure, clear of obstruction.
